WiFi is working. But systemui crashes as soon as you lock the phone. After a restart it crashes instantly. Looking forward to the next build.

SystemUI - crashes can be fixed by adb pushing SystemUI from AOSP lollipop. All crashes now gone (including screen off). I'd suggest only those who know their way around adb try this (you need to r/w mount through adb shell) - here's the replacement SystemUI apk (it's from my latest 5.0.1 r2 build hehe) https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0uD0ZLDjONjRW0xWS12MGF4OWc&authuser=0

Wifi - all good, nice to be able to access google drive, mail, play store etc
Camera - installed google camera - fc's as expected
SU permissions all good
Modem - cellular connected after pushing modem files and ril libs

Pleasantly surprised by first build - will test more stuff and report back..

Did you need to manually push modem files and ril libs? Or are they in the build from the fxpblog.co site ?

^^ I'm away from pc for rest of night.

modem:
mba.b00 & mba.mbt plus all modem.b00 thru modem.b25 & modem.mbt ~ all from stock kitkat. abd push into /etc/firmware/

ril libs:
libril.so and librilutils.so from stock kitkit. adb push into /system/lib/

cant remember if I remembered (if that makes sense..) to abd push rild into system/bin hehe ~ I think I forgot to do it but worked anyway

you should be able to get away with doing in root explorer instead of stuffing around with adb pushing. you have r/w mount system via root adb root shell first (took me ages to get permissions to push system files.. plus what I do is very hit and miss.. n00b hacking away blindly lol).

of course a flashable zip with systemui, modem and ril patches would be best - I'll see if I can learn how to make one (seeing we'll probably need it for a while yet).

probably try to put all the patches into the gapps flashable I think (why reinvent the wheel and I have to flash it already anyway)
